Upon the establishment of the institute, we signed letters of support with the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy and the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport, confirming their commitment to collaborate in developing the clean industry ecosystem.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

“We understand the letters of support from the ministries as a commitment to cooperation that enables faster commercialization and more predictable implementation of clean technologies,” said ACT-SI Director Nina Megli\u010d<\/strong> at the signing.<\/p>\n

What is ACT-SI<\/strong>
\nACT-SI will strive to become the central national and internationally recognized platform for connecting science, industry, and the public sector in the field of clean technologies, with the aim of accelerating research, development, knowledge transfer, and practical application of clean technologies. Its areas of operation include clean energy and energy efficiency, circular economy, CO\u2082 capture and utilization, biotechnological solutions for climate and the environment, and safe water reuse. It brings together experts from industry, science, and the support environment and will act as an interlocutor for industry and the state in creating a more stable investment and regulatory environment for competitive, innovative, and clean industry.<\/p>\n

“For the development and use of clean technologies today, we do not need another strategy, but a systematic and stable path from development to industrial application. ACT-SI will operate where projects most often stall\u2014in the regulatory field, financing, and technology transfer to real industrial environments,” emphasized Nina Megli\u010d.<\/p>\n

The importance of clean industries is also recognized by policymakers<\/strong>
\nClean technologies enable us to produce, drive, heat, and consume resources more efficiently and with less pollution. This is not just about protecting the environment, but about smarter use of energy and materials, which reduces costs and increases competitiveness. Clean technologies include solutions in the field of renewable energy sources, water treatment, waste reuse, and, among other things, animal feed that reduces greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture. We do the same things better, but with less harm to the environment and society.<\/p>\n

State Secretary at the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport, Matev\u017e Frange\u017e,<\/strong> said at the signing: “The Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport expresses its support for the initiative of the Institute for the Development and Promotion of Clean Technologies, ACT-SI, to collaborate in the development, promotion, and implementation of solutions in the field of clean industry. We welcome the institute’s initiative, which will further contribute to the accelerated development and use of clean technologies in Slovenia. By working together, we can always achieve more.”<\/p>\n

“At the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy, we believe that cooperation between the state, industry, research institutions, and other stakeholders is key to a successful green transition. Technological breakthroughs, a predictable regulatory environment, and the connection of knowledge and capital are the foundation for developing the industry of the future. Therefore, we support initiatives that strengthen the clean technology ecosystem, improve the investment environment, and accelerate the transfer of solutions into practice. The ministry remains committed to dialogue and partnerships that enable concrete steps toward a climate-neutral future,” added Uro\u0161 Vajgl, State Secretary at the Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Energy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What will ACT-SI’s contribution be to the Slovenian market<\/strong>
\nACT-SI brings expert support to companies in the development, testing, commercialization, and use of clean technologies to the Slovenian market, including assessment of their environmental and social impacts. It assists them in finding and securing national and European funding for clean technology projects. It also contributes to creating a more stable business environment for implementing clean technologies in Slovenian industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
